Confirmation for 7th and 8th Graders

Confirmation for 7th and 8th Graders 

Confirmation education provides an opportunity for students to dive deeper into faith and grow in relationship with God, as well as with their peers and adult “Faith Friends” of Shepherd of the Hills. We know relationships matter, so classes include time for conversation, sharing highs and lows, prayer, games, and community-building activities, as well as teaching the foundations of faith and how it connects with everyday life. Classes are held Sundays.

Faith Friends

“Faith Friends” are formed through confirmation. This ministry intentionally connects an adult member of the church with two students of the same gender. Faith Friends gather regularly to get to know one another and be in faith conversations. There are also opportunities for families to gather together.

All children and youth in grades 4 through 12 are invited to participate in the Youth Singers. They typically sing at both services once a month, with two prior rehearsals. There is no “deadline” to join! For more information, email Pastor Darcy.

Youth Activities

Special events like service projects (i.e. packing food for children in need), retreats, parties, and more are planned throughout the year. These often include gatherings with high school students.  Contact the Church Administrator for more information at admin@sothva.org.  Always, check out the announcements for upcoming events.

Volunteer Ministry Opportunities

SOTH loves and encourages children and youth involvement and leadership in all its ministries, including helping with worship and sharing special gifts like singing and playing instruments. Confirmation Students, 7th and 8th Graders, serve as acolytes as part of their Confirmation Experience. Contact the Church Administrator at admin@sothva.org or Pastor Darcy for ways to get connected to service and ministry opportunities.
